Abstract

Recently, ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) for pedestrians is paid much attention and there are many related researches, out of which, Human-Navigation System is the most actively studied. However, pedestrian traffic information is not really utilized. When walking in town, for instance, we often want to avoid pedestrians’ congestion, particularly for handicapped and higher age people. If the pedestrian traffic information is available as a real-time map for each pedestrian, it can provide variety of effective services for ITS. Storing the statistics data is also useful not only for individuals’ scheduling but the marketing business. This paper proposes the system architecture that allows to monitor the pedestrian traffic by distributed camera terminals and to map the gathered information onto a display server via network. We also propose an effective method to detect traffic information using image processing with wide-angle camera and show some experimental results.
